Chinese in Canada: Second Edition

By Peter S. Li

First published in 1988, The Chinese in Canada remains a provocative account of the history and development of the Chinese-Canadian community. In this second edition, Peter S. Li has expanded his original historical analysis to include the many changes that have taken place in the Chinese-Canadian community in recent years. In addition to explaining how and why the Chinese became targets of institutional racism, he offers new insights into why Canadian society continues to view Chinese-Canadians as foreigners, despite their occupational and economic success.
